And we built a new fishtank out of oak plywood, gave it a nice deep red finish. Tore up the 10 gallon tank, moved all the fish into a fishbowl during this process. Put all the old plants into my 75gallon tank for now sense that tank isn't really set up well yet anyway. We ordered a bunch of plants for this tank and got a co2 injection system started on it. And with the co2, comes the light. Yes, we found a dual compact floresent strip like for this tank. 2 65watt bulbs, thats INSANE! Making this tank a high light tank. So we planted it with a bunch of High lighting plants. Thats where we're at now. So, current tank stats are:<br /><li>24" dual indivisualy switched Coralife compact floresent strip light fixture, one atinic blue, other full spectrum. </li><li>Millennium 2000 filter. </li><li>Full glass hood. </li><li>150watt titenium heater with external temp controller. </li><li>20lbs of florite substrate. 10lbs of it is "Red florite."<br />More later! </li><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33417526-115667137500038037?l=www.eskimo.com%2F%7Ecarl%2Ffishblog%2Findex.html'/></div>Carlnoreply@blogger.com0
